RPOF to give $300K to veterans charity

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- The Republican Party of Florida announced Friday it will donate $300,000 to charity.

This move comes after learning Allied Veterans of the World had allegedly given about $271,000 to RPOF for campaigns.

The money will be given to the Florida Veterans Foundation.

"RPOF respects our nation's veterans, and we have zero tolerance for this kind of activity," said Chairman Lenny Curry in a release. "It is outrageous to all Floridians that anyone would use our veterans as a front for criminal actions."
